Code of Student Conduct – Secondary Positive Behavior Support (PBS) is an approach for teaching children appropriate behavior and providing the support necessary to sustain that behavior. Four principles of PBS are • communicate high academic and behavioral expectations to students; • encourage positive relationships with adults; • emphasize goal-setting, academic achievement and positive social development with a teaching emphasis (with accompanying low tolerance for mistakes and misbehavior); and • reinforce positive behavior. Teachers regularly send postcards to parents when students do something outstanding. The Kind Acts Foundation, www.KindActs.org, offers PK-12 teachers an easy way to honor students formally for kind deeds. The foundation sends a personalized certificate detailing the child’s kind act, along with a Kind Acts lapel pin, to any teacher making a request at the Kind Acts Foundation website. The teacher decides how to present the certificate and pin to the student. The Kind Acts Foundation is privately funded, so there is no cost. For more information about this foundation, contact Dave Hall, Director Kinds Acts, Foundation 801-583-2303 DaveHall@KindActs.org “Always bear in mind that your own resolution to succeed is more important than any other one thing.” Abraham Lincoln, Former President 64
Code of Student Conduct – Secondary The Importance of Developing Time Management Skills Time management is an important skill for students of all ages. From studying for school to being an adult and working at a job, time management skills are essential to becoming productive. It has been proven that those who manage their time well, whether in school, work, or exercise, develop good study habits and responsible behavior. Effectively prioritizing tasks is the key to achieving goals. Time management training provides the theory and practice needed to make the best use of time. In order to apply time management principles effectively individuals first have to • accept time management as a personal responsibility; • have a strong and motivating vision of what an ideal life would be like if students were in better control of their time; • have clear and specific goals relating to achievement; • devise a schedule and follow it in order to make this happen, and stick to the plan; and • realize that students (and probably other people) will have to change their way of doing things. When students manage time wisely to achieve their goals, they will feel fulfilled, productive and in control of their lives. Students will be happier, calmer and more effective. If students can achieve this state, they will truly be managing their time to make a difference. “Time is the coin of your life. It is the only coin you have, and only you can determine how it will be spent. Be careful lest you let other people spend it for you.” Carl Sandburg (1878-1967) 65
